very good concept, nice vibe, but had some issues that make it frustrating after a few vampires. You need to start turning keys slowly, BUT VR has issues with turning like that, so you die. You'll need to cut wires without touching them, but the clippers have MASSIVE colliders that that keep bumping wires even when you are no where near them. Just feels cheap and intended to be frustrating. Now I know this sounds like a "skill issue" but I mean, just look at the chiveo percentages, it speaks for itself.

For a $10 game I think it's pretty good, I wouldn't pay more though in its current state. Requires a lot of precision, and it needs more support I feel to make it enjoyable. Otherwise you just keep losing and starting all over again. :( I like the little puzzle before each coffin. Simple but still fun. So far I'd say with some of the recommendations I made below I think this could be more then a $10 game. My recommendations. __Rail on the right side for pulling you forward and back. I think it would be nice if it also it had a rail going up and down (I know that might seem odd but for a VR game...). I could see this a different way though. IE I'm right handed, so having the bar on my left to adjust I think would be a great feature, but then there is the coffin door that opens this way. Maybe once you get to a point with the coffin door it disappears? Not sure. __Commentary after dying. I believe can be lowered, I'm still playing/testing. But when you make a mistake because as far as ...
A really unique VR experience that requires you to move very slowly and be very precise. It's a game about slaying vampires in their coffin. Each coffin is a puzzle with different mechanics that need to be tackled, again, slowly, precisely. You get a little 3D stone puzzle before each vampire, which is a nice diversion. They get increasingly complex and frustrating, but are fun. The progression in the game is good. Vampire coffins start off fairly simple. Once you get the knack of it, you end up undoing dozens of traps and wards before slaying the vampire. I found most levels to be fairly simple. The most I had to retry a level was three times. The mechanic for when you make a mistake is fair. Just chill for a sec and get back in the groove. I see some complaints about issues with the VR controls, due to the amount of precision and speed required. I found with the turning mechanisms making small precise turns easier than making one large slow turn. I would release after each small tu...
Mixed reception Without going into much detail, it's better in concept than execution. I had wanted thus game for awhile, cause it looked fun, but random things will cause you to fail, like not having a complete deathgrip on the controller, or moving your pliars hit box too close to the wires (which visually you'll be in the clear). Also if your controllers lose tracking for a split second, it's a little forgiving but not overly so, so randomly it's a kick in the nuts Also, the scares are about as scary as in the trailer (ie; cartoonishly scary, like a particualrly intense episode of Scooby Doo). It's fun but it's as if they got a large enough test group to complete the game that they didn't care about it's shortcomings, which can be frustrating, but not in a skill-based way. The game is short and after you kinda get used to it's intended and unintended challenges it's straight forward. Not bad if it's on sale, but the game itself is built upon the concept that you'll f#cß up...
I went into this expecting a puzzle horror game. What I got was tedious, slow movement at every turn, and if you didn't go slow enough, you get jumpscared. Not what I'm looking for.
